CONTRADICTORY HADITHS

10) THE SKIN OF DEAD ANIMAL
The first contradictory hadith: The Prophet said: “A tanned skin becomes clean”. Then he came across the carcass of a sheep and he said: “Why don’t you use its skin?
Bukhari

The second contradictory hadith: The Prophet said: “You should not utilize the skin of a dead animal.”
Hanbal

According to the Quran, the flesh of a dead animal should not be eaten. There is no mention of a ban against the use of the skin of a dead animal. According to the hadiths above, the account differs as well you may observe.

While there is no contradiction in the Quran, to trace the authenticity of the alleged hadiths has led us nowhere. The Prophet’s complaint in the next world was as follows:

30 – The messenger will say: “O my Lord! My people have deserted this Quran.”25 The Distinguisher, 30
